以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Don't know much about you
对你所知甚少
Don't know who you are
不知你模样
We've been doing fine without you
没有你我们过得挺好
But we could only go so far
但总觉得缺了依靠
Don't know why you chose us
不知为何选中我们
Were you watching from above
可是在天上注视已久
Is there someone there that knows us
是否有人在天上知晓
Said we'd give you all our love
我们会给你全部温柔
Will you laugh just like your mother
你会像母亲一样爱笑吗
Will you sigh like your old man
还是会像父亲那般叹息
Will some things skip a generation
有些特质是否隔代相传
Like heard they often can
就像人们常说的那样
Are you a poet or a dancer
你会成为诗人还是舞者
A devil or a clown
是天使还是小丑
Or a strange new combination of
或是我们传承下来的
The things we've handed down
奇妙新组合
I wonder who you'll look like
不知你会像谁的模样
Will your hair fall down and curl
发丝会垂落卷曲吗
Will you be a mama's boy
会成为妈妈的乖宝贝
Or daddy's little girl
还是爸爸的小公主
Will you be a sad reminder
你会成为悲伤的提醒
Of what's been lost along the way
提醒我们沿途失去的风景
Maybe you can help me find her
或许你能帮我找回她
In the things you do and say
透过你的一言一行
And these things that we have given you
我们赋予你的这些珍宝
They are not so easily found
并非轻易就能获得
But you can thank us later
但你可以稍后再感谢
For the things we've handed down
为我们传承的一切
For the things we've handed down
为我们传承的一切
You may not always be so grateful
或许你并不总是感激
For the way that you were made
与生俱来的模样
Maybe some feature of your father's
也许继承了父亲的某些特质
That you'd gladly sell or trade
或许有天你会心甘情愿舍弃
And one day you may look at us
当某日你望向我们时
And say that you were cursed
或许会埋怨命运不公
But over time that line has been
但这份宿命早已
Extremely well rehearsed
被世代反复诉说
By our fathers and their fathers
由我们的父辈 及父辈的父辈
In some old and distant town
在那遥远古老的小镇
From places no one here remembers
从无人记得的远方
Come the things we've handed down
传承下来的珍贵礼物
The things we've handed down
奇妙新组合
The things we've handed down
奇妙新组合
